Register Your Long Distance Carrier

CapTel 840/800/200 phones

No action needed!

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has waived its rule regarding long distance charges on calls placed through the Captioning Service. Therefore, CapTel users no longer need to register their Long Distance Carrier of Choice with CapTel.

FEDERAL LAW PROHIBITS ANYONE BUT REGISTERED USERS WITH HEARING LOSS FROM USING INTERNET PROTOCOL (IP) CAPTIONED TELEPHONES WITH THE CAPTIONS TURNED ON. IP Captioned Telephone Service may use a live operator. The operator generates captions of what the other party to the call says. These captions are then sent to your phone. There is a cost for each minute of captions generated, paid from a federally administered fund. No cost is passed on to the CapTel user for using the service. CapTel captioning service is intended exclusively for individuals with hearing loss. CapTel® is a registered trademark of Ultratec, Inc. (v5.6 10-19)
